Leica announce new M9 and lens

Leica has shown off a new incarnation of the M9 alongside a new 21mm lens. The M9-P offers a new, scratch resistant coating on the LCD screen and a modified colour scheme, but is otherwise identical to the standard M9.

The 21mm f/3.4 lens is an M fit, making it usable with the new M9-P. Thanks to the compact size and all metal construction the new lens should be perfect for field work, especially travel photography. 21mm will be £2,025, and the M9-P will be £5,395.
